Anyone notice that Food recalls seem to have declined during the Trump administration

So here we go again, Pet food, Romain Lettuce and now this; Fruit distributed by the

Jac. Vandenberg, Inc. Recalls Fresh Peaches, Fresh Nectarines and Fresh Plums Because They May Be Contaminted with Listeria Monocytogenes

Is it my imagination or is something going on here as the annual food recall numbers seem low based on the FDAS own recall data

www.fda.gov...

So, I know Federal employees as I have worked with them for decades and either someone put a smackdown on FDA inspectors or the embedded legacy employees are taking the position of "The Empire Strikes Back". Could it be in their minds that by allowing bad food into the USA that screaming mothers saying F Trump and will take to the streets and riot? I don't know but word around the Barn Yard is that some sheet is going on. Your thoughts?

Here's the link to the actual numbers

Haven't been counting, but it seems like more recalls to me

Not really.
I don't think the administration in power has anything to do with contaminated food.

Pedro pooping in the lettuce patch it the problem, but hey, it's organic.

Trump lowered fda budget to perform food testing in 2018, no testing no recalls.

We had a big lettuce recall in 2018...and 2017.
And cauliflower in 2018.

And several meat recalls in 2018, IIRC.

I think it's about the same as usual, or maybe more.

When people start going to the hospital that's like human testing. So if the food's bad, they will get notified that way.

I'm not saying it's a good method. I would prefer no one get sick.

It's not like the govt tests all the food anyway. Food is supposed to be tested by the company producing it. Govt only checks a tiny fraction to begin with.

I read that in Mexico they toss the paper into a basket and don't flush it down as the sewers cant handle it. So pooper Pedro is so progressive that he went hands free combat in the Cabbage patch? Actually Pedro needs to stop watching California TV stations who boost the campaign

"If it's yellow, let it mellow, if it's brown, flush it down."
